Then get a real one. Or start a Korpurashun and make $250,000 a year like every other clown with a grade school education on here has done.

2 years. Wait... I'll break it down for you. Say you have 18 Big Macks, the King comes in and orders 16. How many Big Macks do you have left to sell?

So where is the change in behavior? If 16 is the same as 18, is 14 the same as 16? 18 the same as 20?

It depends on which psychologist you look at. For example Lawrence Konlberg thought there was three stages. 11-16 are very similar being in the stage cognitive role. Erik Erikson thought that 16 - 21 were very similar in terms of behavior by the identity vs role confusion stage.

16-18 isn't much of a difference. Both do the same things. Like 8 and 10 year olds. 16 and 18 year olds have very similar thinking processes and how they react to certain situations. Except 18 year olds can watch naughty things on the internets.



dont make fun of my burger flipping the king will get you.

Good, I guess the driving age should be raised to 21 then. Less males teens wrapping themselves around trees. And less bimbos hauling around a car load of fellow bimbos all chatting on their cell phones.

It's settled then.

Flame if you want. I crashed my Z and I was 18 not gonna make excuse but i should be 1 in a 1000 to not wreck my Z because i'm not the average teenager with **** for brains and thinks he's **** hot but it happened it's my fault.

Good thing i didn't injure anyone and it was just me and a couple of rotten posts the thing though is evey teenager and i mean every one needs to get in an accident at least once because it makes you realize the things you can and cannot do to your car. I'm not saying a serious accident but something that makes you wake up a bit and maybe understand physics.

Anyways i'm taking everything to the track and on another note the car was a salvage title already and now it's a little more salvage nothing wrong with the frame of the car though just a little body work.

Besides my little story in all honesty if the car doesn't drive the way it did after they fix it and you still have money i would consider getting another Z or a different car just because there's a possibility that it wont drive like it use to. I can imagine how you feel except i was more pissed because i did something stupid and now i haven't driven the car for over 6 months.

Lets put it this way i think kids needs something worth enough or something that it means a lot to them to make them think, because in all honesty if it was a civic that could be picked up for 2-3k then it wouldn't be so painful not only for the wallet but something that means more to me.

I'm not saying civics are bad i think there cool cars if you do them right like any other car but with the Z it's something special, especially if your a car enthusiast. So yeah kids would be better off in something safer less power but the thing is will they think twice if it was a beater car and they wrecked it, they might just say **** happens and then move on.

Now this is not good for careful drivers like you (i believe) because we jack up the insurance rates but you get my point.

My dad told me if i get in another accident then i'll be walking to wherever i go.

Anyways i'm taking my stuff to the track it costs less then repairing cars of course unless I wreck there.....sigh. I don't intend to wreck my Z again after it's fixed but now i'm afraid someone might run into me. I don't want to have my car freshly painted and then have some jackass rear end me. Someone needs to invent car forcefields.

Ouch man. No good.

I had an issue in the rain a few weeks ago. $1200 to fix that, and you can't even NOTICE it, unless you stare at the car or I tell you about it. I went to my friends house the other night and he didn't notice it until I told him.

I should think that they would total on that much damage. $11,600? That is pushing it, especally if that is an '03 or something (which a dealer *might* give you $14-15k for).

Uh, I think you mean Lawrence Kohlberg. I hope you passed Psychology 101.

I, for one, wouldn’t be quoting Kohlberg. There were many criticisms of his theory.



Some critics claim that the use of hypothetical situations skews the results because it measures abstract rather than concrete reasoning. When children (and some adults) are presented with situations out of their immediate experience, they turn to rules they have learned from external authorities for answers, rather than to their own internal voice. Therefore, young children base their answers on rules of "right" and "wrong" they have learned from parents and teachers (Stages 1 and 2 according to Kohlberg's theory). If young children are presented with situations familiar to them, on the other hand, they often show care and concern for others, basing their moral choices on the desire to share the good and maintain harmonious relations, placing them in Stage 3 or 4 (which Kohlberg claimed was impossible at their age).

Kohlberg's emphasis on abstract reasoning also creates confusing results in which habitual juvenile delinquents can score at a higher stage of moral development than well-behaved children. Because behaviors are not considered and reasoning is determined through hypothetical situations, children who behave in immoral ways may be able to answer hypothetical moral dilemmas in a more advanced fashion than better-behaved children who think less abstractly. Early criticisms of Kohlberg's lack of attention to behaviors led Kohlberg to add an emphasis on moral action to his Just Community educational program. For those who are looking for concrete help in developing moral values in children, however, Kohlberg's theory is still of little practical use.


Class dismissed.
